THINK II OVER, GENrLEmEN.

1t ID conceded by all intelligent Oh
servers that the material development
and progress OF Utah has been retarded
by the agitation which has been main
tanned here FOG 90 many years. Men
with capital who would otherwise have
come here and invested for the develop.
rneut of our rich natural resources,
have been Kept back by the runaored
unsafe, unsettled condition of things.
Others whe liked the climate and the
country aud would have made this their
home 2cd increased the; wealth of the
Territory. stayed away because they did
not care to live in community con-
stantIy excited by agitation, and
where hates were 30 bite and
prejudiees SO pronounced. How many
years che adveaturers who have kept up
this disturbing and ruinous agitation
have held the Territory back in the
matters OF Development and progress,
no one viii sever be able to say, but
some of the men who are largely re-
sponsible for the unhappy condition of
things which has prevailed are now free
to admit thstshad 1t not been for the
constant connection Utah would to-
day contain more people, and be enjoy
ing much higher degree Of prosper
ity. Seme of these men have expressed
a desire, a determination, to call halt
on themselves, and to work to undo
some OF the wrong they have done. 80
far, this is very good; but it
is not enough. Many of the in
fiuensial and more rabid of the
agitstors are gong on with their peace
destroying labor. They are keeping
up the fight" because when the fight
shall +erminate they will have to seek
new Selds. for there will be nothing for
them 10 do here. The prosperity which
all seGauch desire, the "boom" which
every one is so anxious to see and vel
come, will not come while any con-
siderable faction of the adventurous
class. shall be oonntenanced and sus-
tanned ey the other portion which has
concluded to desist so far as it is con-
cerned. While those who have seen
the folly of continuing as they have
been going. and have now. resolved
eto pursue a sane and con-
servative course. permit their names
TO stand on the roll of the
Loyal League, and with their money
maintain that organization, their own
conversion TO right will amount to
nothing. There must be an emphatic
and complete squeIching of the League
and Us methods, before there can come
the wished fo- era of prosperity for the
Territory. Wicked agitation and reck-
less sensationalism having caused the
industrial -stegnation, these things
must stop before the progress can set
in.
The recent acquisitions to the con-
sentative ranks should think of these
things; they should reflect that their
conservative efforts will be vain and
futile while their money is supporting
and their names giving countenance to
an agitation that is destructive of all
thoughts of peace. prosperity and the
harmony essential to the DEVELOPMENT,
progress aad growth which all 90 much
desire.

/ was reading of that disappointed and
mlsanthropic genius Dore, whose illustra-
tons in black and white have won for him
wide reputation. Starting with a sem
sitive organization, and tender affections,
he became the victim of ambition for praise
| as painter IN oil. 1t was characteristic Of
him to ignore model and law, and to de.
velop his powers according to his OWE
capricious fancy. ''My mind is my model
for every thing" he once said. Ard then
he loved Paris rather than humanity at
large, and craved her honors, and worked
his brain and hand in hope against hope OF
receiving tribute from her artistic tri-
bunal commensurate with his genius. His
egotism led him to think no laudation could
exceed his merlt-he made no effort to
cultivate humility; he aimed not so much
to be true to natures simplicity as to
startle the world by the number and va
riety of his original conceptions. and the
rapidity of his execution. He aimed to
create sensation and secure medal from
the French Academy. He created a sensa.
ton, he failed to gain the medal and he
died of a broken heart. Are there not men
now living, and scarcely gray-headed,
whose once tender and aspiring soul has
been embittered, whose passion for great
ness has scorched the freshness out
Of their affections, who are growing pre-
maturely old and fretful, have even aban-
Goned hope, because success has eluded
them: and has it not been because their
ideal was a brilliant vanity ?-Dr. j. Spencer

True Charity.

It is an inadequate Interpretation OF
charity to think of it as mere aims giving.
You speak of a certain person known to
be friend to the poor. s'There is Mr. X,''
you say. HE is very generous man
He can't keep money. He doesn't know
the value of money. He would give away
his last cent" Your friend replies: eyes,
and he is one of society's most dangerous
enemies. He gives Unfortunately. He
gives because he hasn't the courage to say
no! And hundreds and thousands of shift
less and crafty bummers, frauds, tramps,
cranks and other vermin just live and per.
petuate themselves on that kind of beney-
olence," and that is true. Begging is a
business. People get rich at it. Crime is
encouraged by it. Only recently a poor
English woman left alone with little sick
~ babe found that the child excited the
sympathy of the people, and she carried it,
poorly clad and hungry, in her arms from
house to house. Money poured in. She
made quite little fortune. But the cruel,
heartless exposure, and 1ong-continued
hunger slowly murdered the child. Every
one that gave so much as a penny helped
to kill that baby. So, if charity meant
simply alms-giving, you could easily mag
Inc conditions and circumstances wherein
1t would be an injury to the world.-Rev.

up at Capua in 1875 in a tufa grave Among
the contents OF this tomb was an artificial

Ell by the artificial limb. This (probably
unique) relicis now in the museum of tho
Royal College of Surgeons of London, and
is thus officially described: Roman artiti-

resents the form of the leg. 1t is made
with pieces of thin bronze, fastened by
bronze nails to wooden core. Two iron
bars, having holes at their free ends. are,
attached to the upper extremity of the.

found near the position Of the foot, is
thought to have given strength to it.
There was no trace of the foot, and the
wooden core had nearly all crumbed away.

belt of sheet bronze, edged with small nv

absolute German sovereignty over the
